The salve I make is simple yet it can help in many way. What makes it so beneficial? Well the flowers I use are called Echinacea and Calendula. Calendula is basically a magical flower, I’m just kidding it’s not but if magic was real it would be magical. Calendula has antifungal and antimicrobial properties to help prevent infection and heal injuries to body tissues. Calendula is also known to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant components, which might help to fight cancer, protect against heart disease, and ease muscle fatigue. Do you believe me? Does it sound magical? That it is completely natural, It wasn’t made in a lab.
Echinacia is another great flower. Many people might know it better as ”cone flower”. Echinacea can improve skin hydration and reduce wrinkles. Any cream or salve containing Echinacea has been shown to improve eczema symptoms and help repair the thin, protective outer layer of skin. Also echinacea is an antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory, ingredient, and amazing for the treatment of acne. Antimicrobial properties soothe skin of irritation and prevent the spread (and growth) of acne-causing bacteria.
Eventually I want to add some other plants to make the salve to help almost any skin problem.

Calendula

Echinacea
